he has reached out to majority leader reid, and nancy pelosi, to sign off. they gave it. so the white house right now feeling quite confident about this agreement that has been reached. of course, we're talking about the opposition that has been emerging from the left, including labor leaders, he says it is not good enough, why? because the tax rates are not the ones that president obama campaigned on. remember the president campaigned saying that he wanted to see taxes going up on those making $250,000 or more. this of course raises taxes on people making $400,000 or more, if you're single, $450,000 for a couple. so folks on the left saying this is not good enough. but the white house, mitch mcconnell, vice president joe biden believes it is a good deal because it represents compromise on all sides. i also spoke to one of my democratic sources who said look, if you look at the way the sequester has worked out, yes, it has only staved off for two months. however, they are off setting the cuts both through revenue as well as spending cuts. the reason democrats believe it i

dana, we know reid is on board, nancy pelosi is on board. mitch mcconnell, has he definitely signed off to this deal? >> yes. he actually was an early signer of the deal. because he, of course, was the point person on the republican side. i should say, i said yes pretty definitively. behind me, you see a gaggle of reporters, and he's probably going to be mad at me for doing this, but that's mitch mcconnell's spokes person talking to people about what's going on. hopefully i won't be proven wrong, but it's hard to believe i will. mitch mcconnell wient to the floor hours and hours ago saying as far as he was concerned, he and the president had a deal except forsequester, which we now know is resolved. it's hard to imagine he's not on board. the question is how many republicans are going to vote for this? that really does matter not so much in whether it's going to pass the senate, but more importantly, its fate in the house. we talked a lot about from early on when the talks were with the house speaker and the president. that a big hurdle alwa
